TRAINING
The Beat Things for Making the Little
Ones Happy and C%ontentcd.

Ones Happy and Contentcd.
The loving instruction of a mother
may seem to have been thrown away,
but it will appear after many days.
With children you must mix gc%ntleness
with tirmncss. "A man who is learn
ing to play on a trumpet and a pcttcd
child are two very disagrceable COM
panions,' If 4 mother never has head
aches through rebuking her little chill
dren, she shall have plenty Of heart
aches when they grow up.
At the time a mother should
,ot hamper her children with unneces-
sary, foolish restrictions. 1t is . great
mistake to fancy that your boy is made
of glass, and to be always telling him
not to do this, and not to do that, for
fear Of his breaking himself. On the
principle never to give pain unless il is
to prevent a greater pain, You should
grant every request which is at all rea-
sonablc, and let him see that your de-
NAL of a thing is for his own good, and
not simply to ave trouble; but once
having duly settled a thing, hold to it.
Unless Il child learns from the first that
his mothers yea is yea. and her nay
nay, it will get into the habit of wEin-
ing and cndeavoling to coax her out of
her refusal, and her authority will soon
be gone.
Happiness is the natural condition of
every normal child, and if the small boy
or girl has Il peculiar facility for any
one thing, it is for sclf-entertainment;
with certain granted conditions, of
course. One Of these is physical free
dom, and "A few rude and simple play
things. Agreeable occupation is as
great u necessity for children as for
adults, and beyond this almost nothing
can be contributed to the real happiness
Of child.
81 try 70 hard to make my children
happy" said a mother, with a sigh. one
day in despair at her efforts. "Stop
trying" exclaimed a practical frien0
at her elbow, land do as IA ncighbor OF
mine does "And how is that2" she
asked, doIhfully. "Why, she simply
lets her children grow and develop
naturally, only directing their growth
properly. She has always thrown them,
ms far rs practicable, upon their own
resources taught them to wait upon
| thcmsclvcs-no matter how many ser
wants she had-and to construct their
own p%laythings. When she returns
home from an absence they await but
II t%hing-their mothers kiss. What
ever has been bought for them is be-
slowed when the needed time comes
Nothing exciting is allowed to them Il,
night, and they go to bed and to sleer
IN u wholesome mental state, that in.
rurcs restful slumber. They are taught
TO love nature, and to feel that there il
nothing arrayed so finely AS the lily Of
the field, the bees and the butterflies,
that there is nothing 80 mean rs n lie,
nor any thing so miserable as disobedi.
cncc, that 1t h u disgrace to be sick, and
that good health, good teeth and good
temper come from plain food, plenty Of
sleep and being good" In order ia
thrive, children require II certain amount
Of letting alone" Supreme faith in
the mother, few toys. no inory, plain
food, no drugs and early to bed arc the
best things for making then happy

Burmese Trlbcsmcn Who Give Consider
able Trouble to the British Troops.
The most recently acquired British
dependency is a source Of considerable
anxiety to its conqucrors. The ease
with which the Anglo-Indian troops
dispersed King Thcebaw's lcvics and
occupied his capital led to the hasty
conclusion that it would be a simple
business to reduce Upper Burmah to
the same condition or tranquility pre-
vailing throughout Hindostan. But
the British, as usual, were over san
glinc. When a British force UNDER
takes TO invade a country it is invari-
ably filled with the belief. first, that the
inhabitants will not hazard any resist
ancc, and second, that il they should

British civilization their complete dis
comiiturc will be instantaneous. But
the occupation Of Mandalay no more
secured the submission Of the Burmese
tribes than the occupation Of Pretoria
secured the submission Of the Beers.
Tine overthrow Of King Thccbaw's
troops NJ more completed the conquest
Of Burmah, than the overthrow of Shcrc
Ais troops completed the conquest Of
Afghanistan. While the physical feat
urcs Of the two countries differ widely,
there are strong points Of similarity be-
tween the Afghan people and the Bur-
mcsc. Both are turbulent and warlikc,
and in both the tribal system prevails.
Among nations where this system is in
force, the central authority is
easily subyertcd by attack from
without, but the people it.

snldue. The physical differences be-
tween Afghanistan and Upper Burmah
are all unfayorable 10 the invaders.
III the former, the country, although
mountainous, is open. Movements Of
troops in every direction are generally
caly and never impossible. In Upper

COMHIDING PREACHER.

Rccz HILL, September Especial: j..
B. Johnson, young druggist of our town.
attempted to cowhide the Rev. E. G. Prince,
of the Methodist Episcopal Church, on
Main Street to-day. It seems that it had
reached Mr.. Johnson's ears that the Rev
Mr.. Prince had made some slanderous re-
marks in letter to young lady in Reids-
vile. n c.. in regard to Mr.. Johnson's
sister. Mr.. johnson demanded retTaction,
which was refused. Mr.. Prince to-day came
to town to take the north-bound train for
Reidsviile. On his way to the depot he was
met by Mr. johnson with cowhide. 4 few
blows were struck when friends interfered.
The occurrence is deeply deplored by our
citizens. Mr.. Prince boarded the train this
afternoon for Reidsville, where he expects
tomorrow to marry the young lady to
whom he wrote the letter that caused the
trouble.

Tribute Of Respect.
from the WoichmrY and iSouthron.l ]

N'N~
The following resolutions were adoped by
the Mt. Zion Literary Society on the death
of Mr.. Edward W. Cooper:
Whereas, after brief illness Mr.. Edward
". Cooper has been taken from US in the
providence Of God; therefore be it resolved.
lst. That we deeply mourn his death since
through it we have lost dear friend and
the Society and State young man of a
noble and lovable character, and when We
recall his untiring fidelity and devotion to
Society, his constant watchfulness and labor
for its good. and his high example. we feel
deep consciousness of the loss it has
sustained.
End. That We extend to his family our
heartfelt mpathy in their sad bereavment,
but would comfort them with the thought
that. though cut off on the verge of manhood,
yet in mis- short life he did his duty inevery
thing as noble man and faithful Chris
tan.
